Romans 6 Young's Literal Translation
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 What, then, shall we say? shall we continue in the sin that the grace may abound?
1 ¿PUES qué diremos? Perseveraremos en pecado para que la gracia crezca?
2 let it not be! we who died to the sin — how shall we still live in it?
2 En ninguna manera. Porque los que somos muertos al pecado, ¿cómo viviremos aún en él?
3 are ye ignorant that we, as many as were baptized to Christ Jesus, to his death were baptized?
3 ¿O no sabéis que todos los que somos bautizados en Cristo Jesús, somos bautizados en su muerte?
4 we were buried together, then, with him through the baptism to the death, that even as Christ was raised up out of the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we in newness of life might walk.
4 Porque somos sepultados juntamente con él á muerte por el bautismo; para que como Cristo resucitó de los muertos por la gloria del Padre, así también nosotros andemos en novedad de vida.
5 For, if we have become planted together to the likeness of his death, [so] also we shall be of the rising again;
5 Porque si fuimos plantados juntamente en [él] á la semejanza de su muerte, así también [lo seremos á la] de su resurrección:
6 this knowing, that our old man was crucified with [him], that the body of the sin may be made useless, for our no longer serving the sin;
6 Sabiendo esto, que nuestro viejo hombre juntamente fué crucificado con [él], para que el cuerpo del pecado sea deshecho, á fin de que no sirvamos más al pecado.
7 for he who hath died hath been set free from the sin.
7 Porque el que es muerto, justificado es del pecado.
8 And if we died with Christ, we believe that we also shall live with him,
8 Y si morimos con Cristo, creemos que también viviremos con él;
9 knowing that Christ, having been raised up out of the dead, doth no more die, death over him hath no more lordship;
9 Sabiendo que Cristo, habiendo resucitado de entre los muertos, ya no muere: la muerte no se enseñoreará más de él.
10 for in that he died, to the sin he died once, and in that he liveth, he liveth to God;
10 Porque el haber muerto, al pecado murió una vez; mas el vivir, á Dios vive.
11 so also ye, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to the sin, and living to God in Jesus Christ our Lord.
11 Así también vosotros, pensad que de cierto estáis muertos al pecado, mas vivos á Dios en Cristo Jesús Señor nuestro.
12 Let not then the sin reign in your mortal body, to obey it in its desires;
12 No reine, pues, el pecado en vuestro cuerpo mortal, para que le obedezcáis en sus concupiscencias;
13 neither present ye your members instruments of unrighteousness to the sin, but present yourselves to God as living out of the dead, and your members instruments of righteousness to God;
13 Ni tampoco presentéis vuestros miembros al pecado por instrumentos de iniquidad; antes presentaos á Dios como vivos de los muertos, y vuestros miembros á Dios por instrumentos de justicia.
14 for sin over you shall not have lordship, for ye are not under law, but under grace.
14 Porque el pecado no se enseñoreará de vosotros; pues no estáis bajo la ley, sino bajo la gracia.
15 What then? shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? let it not be!
15 ¿Pues qué? ¿Pecaremos, porque no estamos bajo de la ley, sino bajo de la gracia? En ninguna manera.
16 have ye not known that to whom ye present yourselves servants for obedience, servants ye are to him to whom ye obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
16 ¿No sabéis que á quien os prestáis vosotros mismos por siervos para obedecer[le], sois siervos de aquel á quien obedecéis, ó del pecado para muerte, ó de la obediencia para justicia?
17 and thanks to God, that ye were servants of the sin, and — were obedient from the heart to the form of teaching to which ye were delivered up;
17 Empero gracias á Dios, que aunque fuisteis siervos del pecado, habéis obedecido de corazón á aquella forma de doctrina á la cual sois entregados;
18 and having been freed from the sin, ye became servants to the righteousness.
18 Y libertados del pecado, sois hechos siervos de la justicia.
19 In the manner of men I speak, because of the weakness of your flesh, for even as ye did present your members servants to the uncleanness and to the lawlessness — to the lawlessness, so now present your members servants to the righteousness — to sanctification,
19 Humana cosa digo, por la flaqueza de vuestra carne: que como para iniquidad presentasteis vuestros miembros á servir á la inmundicia y á la iniquidad, así ahora para santidad presentéis vuestros miembros á servir á la justicia.
20 for when ye were servants of the sin, ye were free from the righteousness,
20 Porque cuando fuisteis siervos del pecado, erais libres acerca de la justicia.
21 what fruit, therefore, were ye having then, in the things of which ye are now ashamed? for the end of those [is] death.
21 ¿Qué fruto, pues, teníais de aquellas cosas de las cuales ahora os avergonzáis? porque el fin de ellas es muerte.
22 And now, having been freed from the sin, and having become servants to God, ye have your fruit — to sanctification, and the end life age-during;
22 Mas ahora, librados del pecado, y hechos siervos á Dios, tenéis por vuestro fruto la santificación, y por fin la vida eterna.
23 for the wages of the sin [is] death, and the gift of God [is] life age-during in Christ Jesus our Lord.
23 Porque la paga del pecado es muerte: mas la dádiva de Dios es vida eterna en Cristo Jesús Señor nuestro.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
What I had before occasion to remark, that I mention here too, that he continually digresseth into exhortation, without making any twofold division as he does in the other Epistles, and setting apart the former portion for doctrines, and the latter for the care of moral instruction.

… up into heaven, as he himself [Paul] says: "But at the same time, [it, is] Christ [that] died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God." And again, "Knowing that Christ, rising from the dead, dieth no more:" for, as himself foreseeing, through the Spirit, the subdivisions of evil teachers [with regard to …
… thy soul by pleasing God." Our body, too, as a sacrifice when we chasten it by temperance, if we do so as we ought, for God's sake, that we may not yield our members instruments of unrighteousness unto sin, but instruments of righteousness unto God. Exhorting to this sacrifice, the apostle says, "I beseech you, therefore, brethren, by the mercy …

Hear, for instance, how of those passions Paul is ashamed, even after his deliverance from them, saying, "For what fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed?" But virtue, even after his labor, he affirms to be light, calling the laboriousness of our affliction momentary and "light," and rejoicing in his sufferings, and glorying in his …
